Reducing Ischemic Stroke in Diabetes: The Role of GLP-1 RAs
J Fam Pract. 2023 Jul;72(6 Suppl):S55-S60. doi: 10.12788/jfp.0624.ABSTRACTStroke is a significant cause of mortality worldwide, and diabetes is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke occurrence and recurrence. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) lower the risk of ischemic stroke through beneficial effects on traditional stroke risk factors such as hyperglycemia, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Primary care practitioners (PCPs) can play a substantial role in reducing ischemic stroke; studies have indicated that patients who have a PCP at the time of first stroke have a lower risk of stroke recurren...

Determinants of Use of Long-term Continuous Electrocardiographic Monitoring for Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients without Atrial Fibrillation at Baseline.
CONCLUSIONS: When selecting the high-risk group of patients (with an NIHSS score > 12 and age > 64.5 years, or with an NIHSS score ≤ 12, age > 71.5 years, and triglyceride level ≤ 61.5 mg/dL) according to the CART model, the detection rate of paroxysmal AF was approximately double in the acute ischemic stroke patients without AF at baseline.

Predicting 10-year stroke mortality: development and validation of a nomogram
AbstractPredicting long-term stroke mortality is a clinically important and unmet need. We aimed to develop and internally validate a 10-year ischaemic stroke mortality prediction score. In this UK cohort study, 10,366 patients with first-ever ischaemic stroke between January 2003 and December 2016 were followed up for a median (interquartile range) of 5.47 (2.96 –9.15) years. A Cox proportional-hazards model was used to predict 10-year post-admission mortality. The predictors associated with 10-year mortality included age, sex, Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project classification, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eG...

Cost-effectiveness of a Household Salt Substitution Intervention: Findings From 20,995 Participants of the Salt Substitute and Stroke Study (SSaSS)
Conclusions: Replacing regular salt with salt substitute was a cost-saving intervention for the prevention of stroke and improvement of quality of life amongst the SSaSS participants.PMID:35311346 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.059573

The role of blood pressure management in stroke prevention: current status and future prospects
Expert Rev Cardiovasc Ther. 2022 Oct 16. doi: 10.1080/14779072.2022.2137490. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Stroke is the second-leading cause of death worldwide and the second-leading cause of disability-adjusted life-years. It is well-known that hypertension is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular events, including stroke.AREAS COVERED: Recent interventional trials have demonstrated the superiority of intensive blood pressure (BP) control for prevention of cardiovascular events compared to standard BP control. Notably, in the Strategy of Blood Pressure Intervention in Elderly Hypertensive Patients (S...

Role of IL-17A in different stages of ischemic stroke
Int Immunopharmacol. 2023 Apr;117:109926. doi: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.109926. Epub 2023 Mar 11.ABSTRACTInterleukin-17A (IL-17A) plays an important role in the progression of ischemic stroke. IL-17A mediates the endothelial inflammatory response, promotes water and sodium retention, and changes the electrophysiological structure of the atrium, accelerating the progression of ischemic stroke risk factors such as atherosclerotic plaques, hypertension, and atrial fibrillation. In the acute phase of ischemic stroke, IL-17A mediates neuronal injury through neutrophil chemotaxis to the site of injury, the induction of neuronal apo...
